But, I do agree with CP's conclusions. I already own a beautiful copy of Madame Bovary that I've never read, and I would have bought Wind Up Bird at Borders yesterday (but they didn't have it).
I have a strong feeling I'd dislike Cloud Atlas very, very much. Is it a first novel? It sounds like a first novel.

It's a third novel. I'm reading his first novel right now and he's a pretty darn decent writer. Similar to Murakami in many ways. I'm looking forward to
Cloud Atlas, but I don't think the summary does it justice.
